A picture of your car with lid off can help us tell you what car you have.

If it is brushed you will need a new motor and esc. Lots of options out there that are non Traxxas. If wanting Traxxas perhaps take to you local hobby store. Most offer power ups. You trade in your existing motor and esc and get the brushless motor and esc for it.

Then of course will probably went lipo battery's if you don't have them already.

Thanks mate, how do I attach a pic? My closest hobbie shop is approx 1.5 hours away so I’m hoping to find out what i need in order to ask the bloke at the shop. I’m currently running 2s LiPo. I’ve read a few posts about a canyon mamba?

lol ok i feel a bit better now cuz mine is currently a filthy mess after giving some of it a wd40 bath one day and only having canned air to spray it off with after tearing up a couple baseball diamonds at the park the next day. top of my shopping list is an air compressor cuz canned air just doesn't cut it for getting the wd40 off..

a good alternative to a noisy air compressor is an old compressor from a refrigerator connected to a portable air tank.
i sourced parts from a local fridge repair shop and got them for 20$ each....i made a dual compressor install with a pressure switch and a male connector to keep the ''portable'' function of the air tank in my house basement. i can have air for cheap without much noise....

One could just use a blown compressor unit and replace the blown and noisy compressor by the fridge one....

the only bad things about it, is weight and keeping them leveled straight to avoid problem with the oil inside.
